Extended Profile
I love to read almost anything. Mainly fiction, but if a great non-fiction comes around, I'll dive right in! I am a girl with many interest...i.e.~ I coach girls soccer(for fun though, doesn't pay enough to do it for a living), huge fan of French Impressionism (Van gogh, Degas, Renoir, Cezanne, etc.), enjoy wine tastings (have many suggesstions), read as much as my busy schedule allows, etc. I enjoy escaping reality~so books are the perfect gateway for me. Feel free to PM me for a trade~I am willing to mail!
Favorite Bands: No Doubt, Franz Ferdinand, The Beatles
Favorite Movies: Dogma, Almost Famous, Hero, Pan's Labrynith, Curse of the Golden Flower
Favorite Authors: Gregory Maguire, Tom Robbins, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, J.K. Rowling
Favorite Book: impossible~there are too many!
